58. Sailing ship

If, as the theory goes,
the works of Shakespeare can be typed
by monkeys, given infinite time,
perhaps my poetry, prose and silly rhyme
will strike a chord one day,

but there's the rub:
Time, stretched out like a vast, empty horizonless ocean,
now steers his ship in the distance,
a straight unswerving course directly at me.
